It appears Kung Lao is returning to Mortal Kombat, and series creator Ed Boon is having a whole lot of fun with the reveal.

Mortal Kombat fans spied Finnish games magazine Pelaaja previewing Mortal Kombat X, with an image showing an updated Kung Lao, the hat-throwing Shaolin monk, by that name. Now, you may recall Kung Lao was a little dead after the end of the story in 2011’s Mortal Kombat, not that death has ever stopped a character’s return to a video game or movie.

Nvidia’s Jen-Hsun Huang opened the company’s CES press briefing with the announcement of a new mobile graphics chipset, dubbed the “Tegra X1.” Based on the company’s energy efficient Maxwell desktop GPU — it’s the “exact same GPU,” says Huang — the X1 has 256 CUDA processor cores and 8 CPU cores. Huang pointed out that it handles 4K video at 60 Hz, suggesting there’s “nothing like it in the world.”

Huang said that the Elemental demo of Unreal Engine used to consume over 300W of power just two and a half years ago, then 100W on the Xbox One just one year ago, and now only 10W with the Tegra X1. The demo Nvidia played appeared to run at a notably reduced framerate compared to those previous efforts, and the visual fidelity appeared…

Lots of massive announcements and bombshells took place in video game-land in 2014, but which stories were the biggest of the big? Which games did IGN readers want to read about more than anything else? Read on to see 2014’s 10 biggest video game news stories, according to views on IGN.com:

The news:“EA has officially apologized for what it has judged to be a couple of mean-spirited April Fools’ jokes at Nintendo’s expense, tweeted out by its proprietary video game engine Frostbite. The tweets, which have since been deleted, came from Frostbite’s official account and ridiculed the Wii U for being underpowered.”

Three years into its development, I’m not even ephemerally aware of the metastory in Star Citizen, the sprawling spacefaring MMO from Cloud Imperium. I am, however, aware it has intergalactic star vehicle advertisements that perfectly mimic those seen during your average NFL broadcast.

The latest spot in Star Citizen‘s superb fleet reveal series is for the Mustang, not by Ford but Consolidated Outlands, an in-game manufacturer. Everything about this is spot on: the smug, self-regarding designer, the setting in a barren flatlands, the vague 3-D blueprinting. All it needs is the “closed course; professional pilot” disclaimer. Because don’t tell me they don’t have lawyers in this galaxy.

I have revived the website and will be making massive changes to support more modern and cleaner techniques to Word Press. To give a little detail of myself, my name is Daniel and I am a Linux Systems Administrator for HostGator.com OpenStack Engineer (now). I have over 10 years of web design and Linux experience and will be managing the hosting of HackMyWii.org. This project was passed on to me years ago from the HackMyWii.net website’s owner. The old domain now transfers to this site, I will be focusing more on providing news and updates for Wii-U content now.

I will take any ideas to better this website into consideration. I appreciate everyone’s support and hope to bring this site to it’s potential. Also to note, I a retiring Wii content as we will focus on the Wii-U from now on!
